I was trying to install my speedometer tonight but couldn't get my hands behind the gauge to hook the speedo and odometer cables. I looked underneath and there is only a little space there as well. Do I need to find some circus midgets? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) How have the rest of you done this? Thanks

Pull the tach & go thru that hole.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) is easier but i have unscrewed the gauge mounting plate (the face with the 3 holes for the gauges) to gain access. you have to have small hands. how did you disconnect the cable in the first place (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Taking stuff apart is easy, especially when you don't remember the specifics. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Removing the tach is a great idea; I'll try that today. Thanks

Thanks guys. It's alway the obvious I overlook. Pushed out the tach gauge and hooked it right up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Thanks
